‘LIVING ILLEGAL,’ TRIES SUICIDE Veteran Gambler Tired of ‘Too Many Laws.’ Bn United Press DENVER, Sept. 11.—Life “with everything you do being against the law,” was not worth living to Billy Mohn, a character in the night life of Denver for a quarter of a century, so he attempted suicide. Today, Mohn was near death In a hospital. A bullet he sent crashing through his temple, missed its objective by a fraction of an inch. He has one chance in a hundred of recovering. If he does, he will be blinded in both eyes. Mohn, employed at one time or another in almost every saloon or gambling house in Denver as a bartender or a dealer, left a note to his old-time friends. “Life ain’t worth living no more—there ain’t no fun in this old world —a guy can’t do anything any more —everything is against the law.” The veteran gambler smiled when told blindness was the only alternative to death. “Guess I’ve seen about all there is to see,” he answered, “so it doesn’t matter much, one way or the other.” BILLINGS MAY FIGHT ALONE FOR PAROLE Publicly Repudiates Alliance With Mooney in Freedom Battle. By United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Sept, 11.—A public statement by Warren K.

Parole opportunities have been ignored because they would imply an admission of guilt. In the statement issued from Folson prison, Billings said that because he “conceded to the demands of Mooney and the others” he has become a nonentity in the case.” COMMUNISM HAS ‘GONE’ Russia Now' Operating on “State Capitalism” Basis, Says Engineer.

E. CHICAGO CITIZENS PROTEST ‘VICE RULE’ Threaten to Take Law Enforcement Into Own Hands, Ogden Told. So rampant is vice in East Chicago that citizens, in a letter to At-torney-General James M. Ogden, threaten to take law enforcement into their own hands through a “citizens vigilance committee.’’ The letter listed a number of alleged places and vice resorts, all, it is charged, being operated by lieutenants of Al Capone. A copy of the letter had been sent to Oliver Loomis at South federal district attorney. “Numerous complaints have been made to our city law enforcers and to our county prosecutor and the sheriff, ‘Mr. Roy Holley’, all to no avail,” the letter charged. “Something will have to be done, if not, we will.” Ogden declares that the situation is one which should be handled by the federal attorney.

PASTORS CLASH; RIOTS FOLLOW; TROOPSJALLED Jonesboro, Ark., Is Placed Under Martial Law; Mayor Attacked. By United Press JONESBORO, Ark., Sept. 11.— Jonesboro was under martial law today, with guardsmen patrolling the streets to prevent further disorders in a dispute between a local preacher and a visiting Texas evangelist which has split most of the town into rival camps. Governor Harvey Parnell proclaimed martial law from his offices in Little Rock at the request of local officials, after two outbreaks, one involving an attack on Mayor Herbert Bouler and another resulting in the arrest of three men on charges of assault. The attack on the mayor occurred Thursday after' a defiant “prayer meeting,” in which Evangelist Joe Jeffers of Texas is alleged to have uttered a plea that “God would strike the mayor dead.” Mayor Is Attacked Mayor Bouler ordered the meeting, which was being held on the city hall steps, broken up. Jeffers’ followers then surrounded the mayor and began to attack him, but the official was rescued by a squad of police. A warrant charging Jefers with inciting mob violence was sworn out against Jeffers, but was not served. Jeffers’ plea against the mayor apparently was uttered in the belief that Bouler was supporting the Rev. D. H. Heard, pastor of the First Baptist church here, whom Jeffers accused of misconduct in Texas. Previously, Jeffers’ sympathizers had attacked a Heard supporter, after a meeting at which Mr. Heard ! censured thirty-seven members of his congregation for taking the evangelist’s part. George Cox, one of the man denounced for “disloyalty” by the Baptist pastor, his son, George Cox Jr., a University of Arkansas football player, and J. W. Cox, chiropractor, were arrested, charged with assault on Dr. Henry Lile, dentist. Troops Guard Tent Thursday night 5,000 persons flocked to the tent where Jeffers is holding evangelistic services to hear him speak on "Law and Order.” Troops surrounded the tent to prevent further disorders. Trouble broke out when Rev. Dow H. Heard, pastor of the fashionable First Baptist church, was accused of misconduct while in Big Springs, Tex., before he came to Jonesboro. Mr. Heard’s followers sent two of their number to Texas. The emissaries returned with testimonials and depositions refuting the charges. The Heard delegation presented the findings to Rev. Jeffers’ followers. Fighting broke out and police were called. Jeffers organized 400 of his followers into a parade and marched on the city hall, demanding release of Cox. The request was granted, but another demonstration occurred when the Jeffers paraders crowded into the corridors outside the city court to attend Cox’ hearing.

STATE'S TRUCK BUYING AGAIN IS QUESTIONED Losing Bidders Point Out York’s Position as Prison Trustee. Question of the legality of the purchase of forty trucks by the state highway commission from the Indiana Truck corporation may be brought to the attention of Attor-ney-General James M. Ogden, by other bidders because of the fact that E. H. York, representing the truck company, is a trustee of the Indiana State Reformatory. The other bidders are raising the same contention against York, which was raised against his representative, Samuel J. Farrell, of Hartford City, state representative and member of the state budget committee. Ogden ruled a year ago that Farrell, because he was drawing pay as a state official, could not sell equipment to the state. Bar Removed In order to remove this bar, Farrell was assigned to sell trucks to other states, while York took over the duties here. Now’ it is pointed out that York's status is the same as was Farrell's. He receives a per diem for serving as a trustee of the state reformatory and section 2630 of Burns’ annotated statutes, 1926, makes it illegal for “any state officer to be interested, directly or indirectly, in any contract With the state,” and carries a penalty, if found guilty, of not less than S3OO fine nor more than $5,000, and an indeterminate prison sentence of from two to fourteen years. Malts for Request Ogden can do nothing unless a state department asks for an opinion, and requests that a prosecution be ordered. The Indiana supreme court decision. volume 127, also held that trustees of state institutions hold lucrative positions and that would bring York’s position on the reformatory board under the provisions of section 2630. Whether the question will be carried to Ogden by a state department is unknown. PATAGONIA EXPEDITION BACK WITH ‘TREASURES’ Leader Claims Paleantologic Specimens Bridge Great Gap.
